13 As a (non-ppc, amd64 FWIW) libreware user, I too am happy to see
14 someone's working on icedtea. I'd love to have a real/working Java as a
15 viable option once again. Not demanding as I'm very aware I'm not doing
16 the work, just wondering, and appreciating that it's even possible, now,
17 and all the work people both upstream and Gentoo are putting into it.

19 ETA? At least order of magnitude (weeks, months, years, hopefully not
20 decades! =8^)? I'm not afraid of overlays.
